Books, Art, Poetry & Peacocks!

Tag: book blogger

It’s been a few days since my last post but the truth is that I’m struggling and haven’t really been around for some time. Many of you might have noticed I’ve been sort of missing on most of my social media accounts. I’ve been putting out automatic posts on the blog and occasionally replying to comments, but I really haven’t been well lately and I’m so sorry for not being around.Read More »

Description: Before you read this book you should know:
1) There’s a huge LIE in this book!
2) The book is SUPER, MEGA-SCARY. (That’s scarier than a PIRATE in a BAD MOOD)
3) That’s because this book has ALIEN SLUGS, KILLER ROBOTS and GIANT WORMS. And EVEN SCARIER than that…THEY’RE IN SPACE!Read More »

Hi everyone, it’s been a while since I’ve posted a book haul and also a while since I’ve been properly active in the blogging community, apart from a few pre-scheduled posts. I hope you’ve enjoyed the posts I’ve put out during my absence, including the recent (and very first on this blog) author interview. I’ve not been very active lately due to health issues. I don’t want to bore you guys, but I’ve not been very well lately, been having a lot of doctor appointments and, well, I’ve just been very unwell 😦 . It’s affected my blogging, and I want to apologise to everyone who’s been waiting for reviews from me, I’ll be getting to them as soon as I can. I don’t know how long it will be until I’m fully well again, but I just wanted to give you an update in case anyone was worried why I’ve sort of disappeared off social media and that ❤

In the meantime, I wanted to share this wonderful book post I got a couple of weeks ago from the very kind people at Walker Books. It’s a little late but these are books that have all come out this month and I’ll be reviewing them here as soon as I can. Let me know which books out of these interest you 🙂

Here are some picture books (descriptions from Walker Books email to me):

Description: With Emma’s past threatening to ruin her life in quiet Crickleford, she’s running out of options. If people – especially Matt, her reporter friend – find out her secret, it might force her to leave the place she’s come to think of as home.
When flooding strikes the town while Emma is looking after an elderly couple’s dog, she has to take her biggest risk yet – but could this be the one that blows her cover for good? And if it does, can Crickleford – and Matt – ever accept Emma for who she truly is?Read More »

Description: Jabari watches the other kids jumping off the diving board. “Looks easy,” he says.
But when Jabari’s turn comes, he squeezes his dad’s hand. The diving board is high…and maybe a little scary.Read More »
